Owner: John Badarzynski
Location: 1603 Denison Ave., Cleveland, Ohio
Badar's was the small store next to Fred's Meat Market. It offered kids from St. Barbara's and East Denison Elementary School a place to buy school supplies, candy, and ice cream. The store also had a small soda fountain where you could enjoy milkshakes, sodas, and banana splits.
As you entered the store, a gumball machine was the first thing encountered just left of the door. Inside were the desireable striped gumball "winners" that got you a free 5 cent candy bar if you were lucky enough to get a winner for your penny.
Just behind the gumball machine was the candy counter with it's array of candy dots, flying saucers, Tootsie Rolls, gum, candy bars, etc.
Across the aisle the students could buy pencils, fountain pens, 10 cent bottles of ink, notebook paper, and other supplies.
The property was purchased by the Badarzynski's in 1935.
John Badarzynski died in 1961. With both schools closing down, the business couldn't have survived very much longer, anyway.
